[ 1 ] - Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes with unsymmetrical tetradentate Schiff base ligands: Synthesis, spectral characterization, antimicrobial assay and DNA binding property

The reaction of copper(II) chloride and zinc(II) chloride with N-(2-methylphenyl)-3-(1'-salicylaldehydene-2'-imine-ethane)-butanamide(H2L2a) or (MPSB), N-(2-methylphenyl)-3-(1'-(3'-methoxysalicylaldehydene-2'-imine-ethane)-butanamide (H2L2b) or (MPMSB) and N-(2-methylphenyl)-3-(1'-(2'-hydroxyacetylene-2'-imine-ethane)-butanamide (H2L2c) (MPHB) leads to the formation of a series of new complexes...

[ 2 ] - Spectroscopic evidence of Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes having amino acid based Schiff base: A special emphasis on in vitro antimicrobial, DNA binding and cleavage studies

A new Schiff base ligand (L) obtained by the condensation reaction of N-acetylaceto-otoluidineand 2-aminopropanoic acid (an amino acid), is used to synthesize four mononuclearcomplexes of [MLCl] and [ML2] types (where M = Cu(II) and Zn(II); L = Schiff base) bykeeping the metal and ligand ratio as 1:1 and 1:2 respectively. This ligand and its complexeshave been characterized on the basis of diff...

[ 3 ] - Anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial studies of biosensitive Knoevenagel condensate β-ketoanilide Schiff base and its Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) complexes

A new series of transition metal complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II), has beensynthesized from the Knoevenagel condensate Schiff base ligand(L) derived from β-ketoanilideand furfural with o-phenylenediamine and diethylmalonate. Structural features were determinedby spectral and analytical techniques. Square-planar geometry has been adopted by thecomplexes except cobalt complex which ...

[ 4 ] - Biologically vital metal-based antimicrobial active mixed ligand complexes: synthesis, characterization, DNA binding and cleavage studies

Few novel cobalt(II) and copper(II) complexes [M(fmp)3]Cl2, [M(fmp)(bpy)2]Cl2,[M(fmp)(phen)2]Cl2 and [M(fmp)(phen)(bpy)]Cl2 (fmp = 3-furan-2-ylmethylene-pentane-2,4-dione, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) have been synthesized andcharacterized by elemental analyses, molar conductance, magnetic susceptibility measurements,IR, electronic, EPR, mass spectra and cyclic voltammetri...

[ 5 ] - DNA interaction and antimicrobial studies of novel copper (II) complex having ternary Schiff base

A novel ternary Schiff base ligand (HL) of ONO type and its copper (II) complex weresynthesised using 2-aminophenol and o-acetoacetotoluidide. They have been characterised by theusual analytical and spectral methods. The interaction of the complex with calf-thymus (CT)DNA has been investigated by UV-Vis, viscosity measurement, cyclic voltammetry anddifferential pulse voltammetry studies. The re...
